Film screening: ‘Planetary Defenders’

August 8, 2025
7:00 PM - 8:15 PM

We know that the dinosaurs were wiped out in part by the impact of an object from space. What are the chances that such a catastrophic event might reoccur, and what are we doing about it? Come to the planetarium to watch the new NASA film “Planetary Defenders” on Friday, Aug. 8. There will be a Q&A session after the film with Central planetary scientist Dr. Jennifer Piatek. Doors open 30 minutes before show time. Seating is on a first-come basis, and we expect this event to fill up quickly so arrive early!

No food or drinks are allowed in the planetarium, including water, candy, or gum. Please help us maintain our new carpet and the rest of the facility.
